I love that you do these restorations properly. You use the proper methods to do everything from disassembly to cleaning to reassembly to painting to greasing, everything. If I needed anything restored I would have no issues letting you do it
My grandpa had a simillar one when I was young. He used to hide various bottles of oil in beetween the firewoods of the pile, including the drill wich I loved so much.. I searched for it 5 years and still, I couldn't find it... I appreciate your work since I stumbled over your channel.
Would these have been originally designed to drill wood or timber? It just got ne thinking when you put a hss drill bit in it. Right or wrong l would have thought a wood bit would have been more fitting
Hello, I’m not sure if this is a good idea, but you should get a flat washer and a wing nut, and use them to hold the crank onto the shaft. Love your videos!
Thumbs up for an excellent restoration. You have a good, fullfilling hobby. I have restored a few cars in my time and this can be demanding for want of time, space and money. Restoring tools and small devices is much easier and simple, and one gets the same satisfaction. Now, about "fresh grease" we can accept but "fresh bearings" no......rather "new bearings". Thank you.
Excellent work! One suggestion that I would have done in addition to what you did is I would have used boiled Linseed oil on the bare wood handles - it helps keep from getting blisters and makes the wood age nicely!
Cool! My grandfather gave me the same gift, only the production of the 50's. It has a longer "butt stock" and plastic handles. This drill was presented to him by his father, and grandfather used i't during expeditions on drifting polar stations. Maybe someday I will restore it as well.
I just watched all of your videos. Now I'm inspired to deconstruct the broken and old, and then reconstruct it again; like brand new. However, it's not a material mechanical thing that's in my mind, but this hollow flesh prison I call my body torn down by the inequities of the selfish and left a gaping hole in my soul. Now all these old pieces are rusty and bent, some even broken - but it's never too late to rebuild things and make anew again.
это да. у бати пораздолбаней чем конечный результат. теперь у меня в гараже эта дрелька свой век доживает :) а вот какого фига такой агрегат в америку занесло?
Nice. Have several similar ones. In Germany three old makers come to mind: Ixion, Flott and Genko. All very similar in construction, with primary differences in the diameter of the drill chuck thread. Great job!
On the contrary, of all the things he does, the paintjobs are by far the worst. Actually quite a shame considering he has full pro equipment but does a bad job with it due to a totally wrong spraying technique. You can get far better finish than that with rattle cans, and I do in fact all the time.
Great job! The build quality of such vintage tools always impresses me. Even such a simple tool is made of solid steel, with large shafts and big gears. If such a drill was made today, it would surely be made of plastic. Personally, I'd have avoided painting the square shaft taper of the crank. But likely, it doesn't matter too much.
I saw your new channel , and suddenly go to subscribe , this things are the most earth needs, restore things that can be used later just like they did before. They can still being usefull .
I also repair computers. I see you did very well. Thank you for your hard work. Perfect innovation with passion, so professional, congratulations for such great intelligence and effort,🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍🙏
I’m so glad to find your video! I have a same drill that ones belonged to my grandfather, sadly he would not ever use it again due to his health conditions. The drill is all rusty and I’m going to restore it following your tutorial and make my own video. It’s very important for me as a piece of memory! Thanks!
Great video as always, and of course great job as always too. My late uncle actually had one similar to this, I remember playing with it in his workshop as a kid.
Great job! Looks and works fantastic! I've got one in the garage....my Grandfathers.....(I'm nearly 50) You've inspired me to use it today.....on my sons Guinea pig hutch.... I really enjoyed it....my Grandpa helping me...( his tool) and I was impressed....worked very well....and I got a free workout to! :--)
Great restoration! I have many of these hand drills but none are so good looking. Most of mine have a much longer shaft for the shoulder rest though. It's not easy to find but you should also get a retention nut (usually are knurled rather than hex) for the handle
Woke up to see this in my subscription box. Made my day. Another great video. The only thing that I noticed was that the sound was a bit behind towards the end. Keep up the great work!
It looks like an Ixion (made in Germany) but doesn't have the Ixion nameplate riveted on, so it may be one of the various Polish "knock-offs" done around that time. Wonderful restoration as usual.
I always admire the work you put into the restoration of things plus the videoing the process. Awesome. I always appreciate the showing us more of the products your using. Great idea. Keep them coming:)
thank you for not playing obnoxious music! you need a set of pin punches, and I personally would not have painted it white. but you do nice work,,,,,,,,,,,
My father had a similar drill, I remember it in my childhood. It is necessary to find it and make it on video. Forgive my English, I skipping school in the garage and drilling holes with a hand drill)
yes! a second position to move the handle to, that then uses the 2nd speed option , it has 2 speeds in the gearbox and changing the handle position uses different gears, so you then have to move the support handle too (which he makes later) as they are on opposite sides so as not to get fouled with each other
Nice refurbish job there. Two things come to mind seeing you work on such things. First, you really need to get a bench grinder/wire wheel set up if you plan on doing much of this. Second also buy some roll pin punches and those roll pins will remove and install so much more easy. Just some suggestions.
Been watching your videos and then read the description about sending projects in for you. I read your address and see the postcode and realised I'm just up the road from you in guyhirn!. Small world. Any ways, good videos dude.
Nice work. I think adding a wing nut or a knurled brass nut for handle retention and easy direction changing would be cool. My grandfather had one just like this in his steamer box and it had a knurled brass nut retaining the crank handle. Alas, it was gone long ago. I wish I had all of his older steamer tools, but it stuck in my mind, because his was in excellent condition. When I saw this video I recognized it immediately. His had that same gold/green hammer tone paint and the partially painted wood handles. One of the covers had a decal, I don't recall the maker, Stanley maybe? Sorry, I didn't pay more attention to the decal. The chuck and the threaded shaft that it rides on were black oxide/blue, but definitely not a mottled case hardened look. On his, both handles had a solid red band, about a third of the length of the handle, right in the middle. The rest of the wood was natural with linseed/wax sheen. He also had a removable leather chest pad, that could be laced to the chest heel. I really don't know if the leather pad was originally part of the tool or not, but it was definitely made for that heel and fit it perfectly.

I never would have thought I'd enjoy watching someone rebuild old tools. But I'll be darned if I don't love these videos! Thanks for posting!
tyvm Made my day!

These are always so fun to use! I like the white as well. Good work.
I have the same in my garage. rusty and ready to be restored. greetings nutella guy
Do part two of the saw
I wonder what something like this would look like with spectra paint and flames
Would these have been originally designed to drill wood or timber? It just got ne thinking when you put a hss drill bit in it. Right or wrong l would have thought a wood bit would have been more fitting
Hello, I’m not sure if this is a good idea, but you should get a flat washer and a wing nut, and use them to hold the crank onto the shaft. Love your videos!
What's awesome about this job and quality of care is you feel like the original factory worker assembling this for the first time!

so relaxing to watch! no stupid music only you working
My granddad used to work with theese,i showed him this, and he said, your "restoration" made it better than it was in the first place.
For such a young channel, you've really blown up the past months. Incredible work as always, it looks like brand new. Love the painting work you do
Excellent work! One suggestion that I would have done in addition to what you did is I would have used boiled Linseed oil on the bare wood handles - it helps keep from getting blisters and makes the wood age nicely!
Cheers Dan! And you're not wrong. I didn't have any at the time but do now, so I'll add some!
I got one like this from my Grandpa, was playing with it when I was a child... good memories !
You did a really nice job on this drill. I like that you took it completely apart and restored it the right way.
Cool! My grandfather gave me the same gift, only the production of the 50's. It has a longer "butt stock" and plastic handles. This drill was presented to him by his father, and grandfather used i't during expeditions on drifting polar stations. Maybe someday I will restore it as well.
I hope someone sent this man a set of drifts, he had to get creative in this one lol.
Good job.
My late father would have loved the job you did on this drill. I sure do!
Wow, those gears and shafts polished out nicely.
I just watched all of your videos. Now I'm inspired to deconstruct the broken and old, and then reconstruct it again; like brand new.

I had one. And I'm from Romania. Brings back memories. Great video and great work
Watching this is so peaceful I watch about 5 minutes of it and I'm ready to go to sleep but I can't because it's too amazing
You need Net-Fix! LMFAO !!!
I`m from Russia. My father has that drill. I remember it device at childhood. :)
Василий Заикин она теперь выглядит лучше чем с завода была😂
это да. у бати пораздолбаней чем конечный результат. теперь у меня в гараже эта дрелька свой век доживает :) а вот какого фига такой агрегат в америку занесло?
Василий Заикин эмигрировала очевидно)
Плечевой упор у неё изначально подлиннее, если не ошибаюсь. Надо отрыть дедовскую, проверить
В зелёной молотковой краски выглядел бы лучше (как в оригинале с завода шла).
It's so beautiful seeing restoring old things. You earned a subscriber. Keep up with the good job.
Excellent restoration, works and looks just like a brand new unit.
Awesome color choice. I don't think I would have chosen it, but loved it when I saw it.
The work is all good but darn this is one of the cleanest work bench and well maintained area I've seen, good job bro!
I love this kind of tools. Very convenient to use where there is no easy access to electricity (eg a cabin).
Nice. Have several similar ones. In Germany three old makers come to mind: Ixion, Flott and Genko. All very similar in construction, with primary differences in the diameter of the drill chuck thread. Great job!
Your paint jobs are so well done.
frankstrawnation I don't phink the same
I agree. I'm not saying I would do it any better, but that looks rather bad.

Soon you will have a million subscribers man! You are an artist!!!
Impressive attention to detail the professional paint job was cool 😎
I believe that the original makers of that drill would be proud that it was able to be rebuilt at this age
I also repair computers. I see you did very well. Thank you for your hard work. Perfect innovation with passion, so professional, congratulations for such great intelligence and effort,🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍🙏

My Grandad had one of these. It was very useful for accurate drilling.
You made a great job!! It's awesome!! And I'd really like the painting sessions with the professional overall painter!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Great video as always, and of course great job as always too.
My late uncle actually had one similar to this, I remember playing with it in his workshop as a kid.
Drill looks great. Love the color. Great video. Well done!
a superb restoration,it looks like it has just come out of the box,definatley gets my thumbs up
Nice and straightforward restoration! Keep doing them, dude.

Most satisfying channel on UA-cam.
Great job!
Looks and works fantastic!

You've inspired me to use it today.....on my sons Guinea pig hutch....
I really enjoyed it....my Grandpa helping me...( his tool) and I was impressed....worked very well....and I got a free workout to!
:--)
Hi, got the same one at home, it's made by a company called IXION and it's stamped west Germany.
What an amazing job you've done. Keep em coming👍
Great job. Should have painted those wooden handles red again. That's classic.
Hello bro, good video I liked a lot. All your works are perfect as a restoration and as an edition.
Greetings from Argentina,Santa Fe.
good job as usual, this channel is like visual ASMR
Nice
These drills are awesome
I done restoring simular dril cauple days ago and i love how it looks
Absolute class! Great work & instructional - I’m in process of renovating very similar drill.
A very nice restoration. I have a similar drill and it has a knurled nut to keep the handle on.
And now it will get a second lifetime's worth of use. Amazing!
I'm calling it this channel is going to get big!!
Yea, I am watching while in my " White Walls " room!
that is some real hard work you have done. nice.
Pleasure watching your videos with no disturbing headbanger rock music added.
Another great video...wow...your work is amazing to watch. Thank-you!
WHAT A SWEETY classic tool..love it
Great restoration! I have many of these hand drills but none are so good looking. Most of mine have a much longer shaft for the shoulder rest though.
It's not easy to find but you should also get a retention nut (usually are knurled rather than hex) for the handle
Woke up to see this in my subscription box. Made my day. Another great video. The only thing that I noticed was that the sound was a bit behind towards the end. Keep up the great work!
it must be satisfying to make these restoration videos because it certainly is satisfying to watch them :3
yup.
Were you ever a painter because you do a great job at taping off parts and making even paint jobs? Great stuff!
Great work, old tools looks so steampunk to me
This is better than new! Congrats! Love your channel!
Really nice restoration!
It looks like an Ixion (made in Germany) but doesn't have the Ixion nameplate riveted on, so it may be one of the various Polish "knock-offs" done around that time. Wonderful restoration as usual.
i love how you paint it, beautiful
I always admire the work you put into the restoration of things plus the videoing the process. Awesome. I always appreciate the showing us more of the products your using. Great idea. Keep them coming:)
This is a beautiful restoration!
RESTORING THE DRILL, DESTROYING THE DRILL BIT!!!
ANYWAY, NICE WORK!!!
Nice job, that Sage color looks great - clean
Your videos are so satisfying.
Me again.. who the heck are you !! you are so damn talented beyond belief.. So precise. Thank you !!
Thank you, Rafael, you're too kind.
Great project with wonderful results!!!
Thank you!
Absolutely brilliant, good job.
I've got one of these drills in work except the [shoulder stock?] is a bit longer, really handy wee drill, especially the slow gear.
Excellent workmanship and camera work! Thank you. You need a punch set.
thank you for not playing obnoxious music! you need a set of pin punches, and I personally would not have painted it white. but you do nice work,,,,,,,,,,,
Dear Santa,
I want a set of pin punches for Christmas..................
dhc4ever My thoughts exactly
I cringed at the drill bit hammering part
An Allen key, two drills hammering the points, a wood chisel, a screw driver and a threaded rod haha. Who needs a set of pin punches.
LOL, exactly what I thought as I watched it. Great video but a couple of pin punches in the old tool kit would be helpful!
Maybe a pair of gloves as well Lmao
So enjoyable watching your magic...well done.
Wow! You’re a really fast painter!
Thank you for actually testing it this time :)
Good work bro, i really enjoyed watching.
A quite simple, but very useful tool. Now it is ready for the next 50 years.
My father had a similar drill, I remember it in my childhood.
It is necessary to find it and make it on video.
Forgive my English, I skipping school in the garage and drilling holes with a hand drill)
Those are the best hand drills i hawe used so far.
My grandfather has the same. Immortal tool.
Omg, I have the same type drill in my garage. Sturdy and reliable. :)
No protection on drill chuck and others metal parts ?
Really Thank you for your videos . . . amazing job !
amazing transformation. great job!
nice job, missing the nut that holds the handle on, but im sure you will find one. you dont see many of these anymore, well worth saving it i think
Do you know what that metal thing with threads thats sticking out above the handle is?
yes! a second position to move the handle to, that then uses the 2nd speed option , it has 2 speeds in the gearbox and changing the handle position uses different gears, so you then have to move the support handle too (which he makes later) as they are on opposite sides so as not to get fouled with each other
cool, than you
Not worth saving it. I have 10 of these at home. Their price is around 5 bucks.
Nice refurbish job there. Two things come to mind seeing you work on such things. First, you really need to get a bench grinder/wire wheel set up if you plan on doing much of this. Second also buy some roll pin punches and those roll pins will remove and install so much more easy. Just some suggestions.
This is really cool. I recommend getting some punches, especially pin punches though. They'll last longer than drill bits :)
Been watching your videos and then read the description about sending projects in for you. I read your address and see the postcode and realised I'm just up the road from you in guyhirn!. Small world. Any ways, good videos dude.
paint job was a pro level...a art level
Great work man! I thought about maybe the handles needs to be varnished, but why? The whole point is to use it friction free! Nice!
Nice work. I think adding a wing nut or a knurled brass nut for handle retention and easy direction changing would be cool.
